Microsoft LAN Manager

Support is provided for the Microsoft LAN Manager (version 2.x) environment.
The driver should be installed using the Microsoft LAN Manager Setup Utility.

Notes:
1) The hardware for the Microsoft LAN Manager environment can be configured
to run as an OS/2 server, OS/2 workstation, basic MS-DOS workstation, or an
enhanced MS-DOS workstation. Please refer to your Microsoft LAN Manager
documentation as needed.

2) The directory structure provided on the  NDIS 2.01 driver diskette has
been setup for automatic OEM installation. The OEM Installation section of
this manual provides more details regarding OEM driver installation. Also,
more information can be found in

Driver Installation Using Microsoft LAN Manager Setup Utility

Follow the steps listed below:

1       Insert the NIC2000 NDIS 2.01 driver diskette into the floppy drive.

        Note:
        Two information files ("NIC2000.nif" and "protocol.ini") will be
        used for driver installation. These files are located on the NIC2000
        NDIS 2.01 driver diskette.

2       Change into the LAN Manager subdirectory on your hard disk by typing:

                cd C:\LANMAN

        Then press <Enter>. Next start the Microsoft LAN Manager Setup Utility
        by typing:

                setup

        Then press <Enter>.

3       The following message will be displayed:

                Loading Microsoft LAN Manager configuration ...

4       Hold down the <Alt> key and press "C" to access the "Configuration"
        drop down menu.

5       Use the up/down arrow keys to select "Network Drivers..." and then press
        <Enter>. This will open the "Workstation Configuration" window.

6       If you have an existing (old) OTHERS Ethernet driver installed, use the
        tab key to select "<Remove Config>" and then press <Enter>. This removes
        the existing NDIS driver.

7       Use the tab key to select "<Add New Config>" and then press <Enter>.
        This will open the "Network Adapter Drivers" window.

8       Use the tab key to select "<Other Driver>" and then press <Enter>.

9       Enter the disk drive letter (e.g., "A:") where the NIC2000 NDIS 2.01
        driver diskette is located.

        Note:
        No path is required since the NIC2000 diskette is structured for the
        Microsoft LAN Manager setup.

        Use the tab key to select "<OK>" and then press <Enter>.

10      Use the up/down arrow keys to select "High Performance 16-Bit Ethernet
        Adapter". Next,use the tab key to select "<OK>" and then press <Enter>.

        Note:
        If you have older NIC2000 drivers installed, you will be asked if you
        want to "Overwrite?" Use the tab key to select "<Yes>" and then press
        <Enter>.

        The following message will be displayed:

                Copying drivers, please wait ...

        Wait for the message to go away.

11      Use the up/down arrow keys to select the desired protocol, press the
        spacebar to select, and then use the tab key to select "<OK>". Then
        press <Enter>. You will then be returned to the "Workstation
        Configuration" window.

12      Use the tab key to select "<Save>" and then press <Enter>. The following
        message will be displayed:

                Saving Microsoft LAN Manager Configuration ...

        Wait for the message to go away.

13      Hold down the <Alt> key and press "L" to access the "LAN Manager" drop
        down menu.

14      Use the up/down arrow keys to select "Exit Setup" and then press <Enter>
        . The following message will be displayed:

                LAN Manager Configuration Complete

        "<OK>" will be highlighted. Press <Enter>.

        The installation of the NDIS 2.01 driver for Microsoft LAN Manager is
        now complete.

File Examples

During installation, LAN Manager will automatically make modifications to the
"CONFIG.SYS", "AUTOEXEC.BAT", and "PROTOCOL.INI" files. Below are sample files
for a NIC2000 adapter card.

CONFIG.SYS

DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\PROTMAN\PROTMAN.DOS /i:C:\LANMAN.DOS
DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\NIC2000\NIC2000.DOS

AUTOEXEC.BAT

SET PATH=C:\LANMAN.DOS\NETPROG;%PATH%
NET START WORKSTATION
LOAD NETBEUI
NET LOGON bill.gates

PROTOCOL.INI

[PROTMAN]
        DRIVERNAME      = PROTMAN$
        DYNAMIC = YES
        PRIORITY        = NETBEUI

[NETBEUI_XIF]
        Drivername      = netbeui$
        SESSIONS        = 6
        NCBS            = 12
        BINDINGS        = "NIC2000_NIF"
        LANABASE        = 0

[NIC2000_NIF]


        DriverName      = NIC2000$
        IOAddress       = 0x0300
        Interrupt       = 5

Note:
For NIC2000 adapter cards, be sure the IOAddress, Interrupt match the
card's settings.
